I agree you can get a decent sound.

I have only made one cd, and I don't really see much prospect of it ever tearing up trees pn the folk scene. So it will probably be my life's work. that and a minor hit record in Germany.

At the time I was making the cd , I decided to buy a quality yamaha guitar - I was impressed with the compass range that Yamaha were just bringing out , I settled on the CPX8. It seemed to suit my guitar technique.

However after a couple of years, I realised I should have bought a solid wood guitar for my magnum opus. There is just something about the resolution on of the sound envelope, the cohesion of the notes in the chord - which is very pleasing with a solid wood guitar, which has been played in.
